Spaniards reveal fee Benfica must pay to sign Sergio Arribas from Almería | OneFootball

Sergio Arribas for Dodi Lukebakio. This is the possibility gaining momentum within Benfica’s hierarchy in the final days of the transfer window. The arrival of the Spanish playmaker at Luz will depend directly on the departure of the Belgian international.

Benfica’s SAD will naturally have that figure in mind if it moves forward with the sale of Lukebakio. On the other side of the deal is Sergio Arribas, an Almería player who has attracted Benfica’s interest and whose numbers from last season help explain the desire surrounding the footballer.

At 24, the Spaniard enjoyed a season of a very high level in LaLiga 2. In 42 matches for Almería, Arribas recorded 32 direct goal contributions, numbers that placed him among the most productive players in Spanish football last season, even though the competition was played in the second tier.

Sergio Arribas is a clearly attack-minded player, capable of operating as a creative midfielder or as an inside forward on the right. The left-footer stands out for his ability to create imbalances and his ease in appearing in finishing areas. A potential move to the Eagles could cost Benfica 18 million euros.

The Spaniard does not limit himself to looking for the final pass. He actively participates in build-up play, frequently looks for spaces between the lines, and shows a strong ability to carry the ball forward. He is also a player with a strong eye for goal, showing considerable efficiency when he gets into areas close to the opposition’s goal.
